San Francisco petitioners Xin Farrish and Char Crawford are among those seeking legal recognition of their non-binary gender.

The movement toward the legal recognition of non-binary gender is gaining traction, with additional Californians filing petitions to change their legal gender to non-binary.

On December 2, three members of the Intersex & Genderqueer Recognition Project
(IGRP) filed their petitions with the San Francisco
County clerk’s office. David Strachan, Xin Farrish, and Xin’s spouse Char Crawford will be represented by IGRP Legal Director Toby Adams at their January 31 hearing.

“We at IGRP applaud these brave humans fighting for the right to be recognized as their authentic selves in all areas of their lives, and we applaud their families for their loving support,” Adams said in a release.

Adams and IGRP advisory committee member Sara Kelly Keenan said they are working with the
California
Department of Motor Vehicles to discuss non-binary identification on drivers’ licenses. While no specific timeline has been offered, Adams said the DMV “has made a commitment to move forward.”

Keenan became the first Californian
and second person in the United States to have a non-binary gender legally recognized by the courts. Earlier this month, Keenan was also granted an amended birth certificate reading “intersex,” which Keenan described as
“a dream come true in that it acknowledges scientific reality and says society is ready to accept that people like me exist.”

"This year the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators introduced “X” as an optional gender designation..."Do you know where AAMVA states this? Is it buried somewhere in this document? file:///C:/Users/Admin/Documents/Queer/ResourceGuideOnGenderDesignationOnDLID_September2016.pdf

This is a discussion on the legalization and recognition of nonbinary genders, but I can address nonbinary access to restrooms, too. It's actually very simple. Restrooms that are designed for one person but are marked with M/F signs can simply be changed to say something like "All-gender restroom" or "Gender-neutral restroom." It's as simple as changing the sign. Restrooms such as these are often called family restrooms or "unisex" restrooms. This policy is also good for families with different-sex children and for people with disabilities. I think what you might be trying to reference is the fear of trans women in women's restrooms and trans men in men's restrooms. All trans people are trying to do when using the restroom is to use the restroom. Many trans people fear and face harassment when using the restroom according to their gender. But I think what you are trying to reference is the fear of sexual assaults happening. Sexual assault is indeed a serious thing and trans people are equally outraged about sexual assault, wanting to listen and believe and care for survivors of some of the worst violence known to humankind. Let me reassure you that recently that the National Taskforce to End Sexual and Domestic Violence Against Women issued a National Consensus Statement of Anti-Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence Organizations in Support of Full and Equal Access for the Transgender Community. Over 250 organizations working diligently to end violence signed this coalition statement.
